Therefore I do not see how it is possible in the nature of things for any revival of religion to continue long. For religion must necessarily produce both industry and frugality, and these cannot but produce riches. But as riches increase, so will pride, anger, and love of the world in all its branches. How then is it possible that Methodism, that is a religion of the heart, though it flourishes now as the green bay tree, should continue in this state? For the Methodists in every place grow diligent and frugal; consequently, they increase in goods. Hence, they proportionately increase in pride, in anger, in the desire of the flesh, the desire of the eyes, and the pride of life. So, although the form of religion remains, the spirit is swiftly vanishing away. Is there no way to prevent ... this continual decay of pure religion?]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7080</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile--hoping it will eat him last. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9303]]></link><description><![CDATA[An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile--hoping it will eat him last.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/9303</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[To cheat oneself out of love is the most terrible deception; it is an eternal loss for which there is ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5810]]></link><description><![CDATA[To cheat oneself out of love is the most terrible deception; it is an eternal loss for which there is no reparation, either in time or in eternity]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/5810</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[a lady who couldn't keep her legs together. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37954]]></link><description><![CDATA[a lady who couldn't keep her legs together.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/37954</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[[Larry Adams, 33, has been confined to a room in University Medical Center since April, when he received an artificial ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/40395]]></link><description><![CDATA[[Larry Adams, 33, has been confined to a room in University Medical Center since April, when he received an artificial heart.

If these are gifted with heroic qualities, to vanquish the oppressors of Israel, it is nevertheless not this heroism that forms their principal characteristic. That consists in judging. They restore... the authority of the law. For this reason, God raises up judges, not princes. The title sets forth both their work and the occasion of their appointment.

Male sexuality is, by definition, intensely and rigidly phallic. A man's identity is located in his conception of himself as the possessor of a phallus; a man's worth is located in his pride in phallic identity. The main characteristic of phallic identity is that worth is entirely contingent on the possession of a phallus. Since men have no other criteria for worth, no other notion of identity, those who do not have phalluses are not recognized as fully human.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/27219</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54054]]></link><description><![CDATA[The trouble with retirement is that you never get a day off.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54054</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[You make a winner when you win.
